Maryland and Washington, D.C. Courts & Regulatory Boards

Our experience is not just limited to the courtroom. Our attorneys are also experienced representing their clients before various license and regulatory boards such as:

Maryland Health Care Alternative Dispute Resolution Office

Maryland Board of Physicians

Maryland State Board of Dental Examiners

Maryland Board of Nursing

Maryland Board of Physical Therapy

D.C. Board of Dentistry

D.C. Office of Administrative Hearings

D.C. Board of Professional Counseling

D.C. Board of Occupational Therapy

The Health Care Alternative Dispute Resolution Office, along with the various licensing boards, are all statutorily created. Each one is different, with varying rules, regulations, rights, and appellate procedures. Appearing before the Boards is also unique in that, typically, the Administrative Procedures Act, rather than the Rules of Civil Procedure, are controlling. Whether you have received a preliminary inquiry, or are the subject of a full investigation, having knowledgeable legal counsel to navigate the process is key.

Knowing When to Litigate

Our attorneys spend considerable time in the Bethesda, MD courtrooms and before disciplinary or regulatory boards—that’s often because we first meet clients at a time when their legal situation has progressed to the point that they require firm advocacy.

In certain situations, though, litigation is an unnecessary expense. Knowing when to litigate, versus knowing when to explore alternatives to litigation, can save clients considerable time, expense and sleepless nights. That is why having experienced counsel is critical to an efficient, client specific, resolution of your unique legal situation.
